In this paper He's modified Lindstedt-Poincare method and bookkeeping parameter method known as Parameter Expanding Methods are applied to nonlinear oscillators with discontinuities. We obtained sufficiently accurate solutions with first-order approximations which are valid for whole domain. Comparison of the obtained solutions with the exact ones show the proposed methods are very effective and convenient.
